Description
A setting of my father's poem "In the Deep Dark of the Night" for 1 alto voice, 1 tenor voice, 2 tenor trombones and 2 bass trombones - the trombones would ideally have bucket mutes to give a dark tone.
The sound sample was made using electronic previews of the trombone sounds but the voices are mine.
